Don Gavitte
Don Gavitte
Don Gavitte, a Portland-based comedian, traded his high school history lessons for punchlines back in 2018, deciding stand-up was a more fitting mid-life crisis than a motorcycle. Since then, he's been a regular fixture in Portland's dive bars, earning more drink tickets than he knows what to do with. With material ranging from dad jokes to tales from the classroom, Don's comedic charm has made him a hit with audiences everywhere.
When he's not making crowds roar with laughter, Don can be found headlining and producing "The Teacher Show," a comedy extravaganza that's been packing venues across the Pacific Northwest. His comedic prowess has even earned him spots at prestigious venues like the Broadway Comedy Club in NYC and the Sixth City Comedy Festival in Cleveland.
Despite his comedic success, Don remains grounded in his little blue house, where he resides with his wife (who clearly has low standards), their surprisingly soft pet rabbit, Rupert, and their two children—who may not be honors students, but hey, they're not super horrible either. Catch Don in action at one of his shows, and prepare to laugh until your sides hurt.
Comedy/Bar invites you to join Don Gavitte, Portland's own master of comedy, for a side-splitting evening of laughter and insight. As a teacher, Don hilariously navigates the absurdities of everyday life, including the quirks of teaching, in his unique observations. Whether you're a fellow educator or just someone who enjoys a good laugh, this show promises to entertain and delight as Don invites you to see the world through his comedic lens. Come be a part of the fun and experience A Don of Some Kind!
